PUG's, tanking, and the new changes coming

Ran nDSA with a pug last night, had an absolute blast with a newbie DPS even. Got to the final round, 25%, out pops Archer McArcherson lady that one shots everything. Looked up and yup, everyone but me, the tank, was dead. Switched bars to my 'long live Soriana' bar and went to work building my ultimate so I could rez the healer. With less than one second left to rez heals I get interrupted and have to start the process all over again. Round and round I go, getting the snot smacked out of me, fighting for all I'm worth against three bosses, to build my ultimate again. Long story short, after an immediate death by the healer, another recharge, and one more try we saved the run, killed the bosses, and everyone went tra la la'ing into the night.
If everything I read about stam regen in the new update is true, so long to epic battles like that. No way tanks will be able to take that kind of damage and hits to their stamina with no way to regen other than potions and spamming obsidian shield/gdb.
I wonder if I can ask pugs to supply me with tripots prior to the dungeon?! LOL

✭✭✭✭✭your gameplay was unhealthy to the game -_-ESO player since beta.
game got too disappointing.2 -
Farorin✭✭✭✭✭Hopefully there will be smart ways we can adapt, avenues we can take. But as it is now, for PVE tanking, it will sure make PUGs a pain in the ass.0 -

U need to suffer more in pve so that pvp players can get what they want. Pvp is more imp then pve in eso.0 -

✭✭✭It sounds like you were not really interacting and not really have fun @SorianaRest in Peace:
The Dragonknight
2014-2025
This commemoration is for the class that has constantly been plundered and dismantled by designers for no obvious reason while other classes continue to have coherent skill lines and feel both powerful and cool.4 -
Soriana✭✭✭✭✭@Personofsecrets That made me LOL!!
I joined a group in Craglorn the other night, for lack of anything better to do, and was watching our 'tank'. Now I know what people are talking about when they complain about tanks going in, holding block, and not doing anything. I've never been like that, am constantly moving, chaining, taloning, attacking, interrupting, etc. I can see how the stam regen change SHOULD affect tanks like that but tanks that actually do their job already? Come on...1 -

I cant wait for them to *** up their game. Tanks and healers are in shortage already, cant wait to see how badly the state of game will be after patch.1 -

✭OP didnt have personal @ZOS_BrianWheeler @ZOS_EricWrobel "fun meter" installed on his device, that will determine how much fun actually he was having in the Wheeler-Wrobel scale. Because the only objective way to measure how happy someone is, is using that scale.
After "0 stamina regen while blocking" nerf, even if OP will not notice how fun and interactive will be:
looking at stam bar->seeing it go down with 0 regen -> dying
it just means he has to adapt to dying some more.
Because as long as @ZOS_BrianWheeler @ZOS_EricWrobel are happy with the change because "it will be good for long term health of game" (while apparently DPS pulling 25k DPS and burn every boss before mechanics kick are all good for health of game) every tank who actually plays PVE is wrong.
After patch 1.7 goes live, every tank will obtain a new exclusive trophy in his mail, and item 2x "Laundry clothes pin"
